In fact, this era is even more extreme than this, and there are too many heinous horrors to enumerate.

However, it is indeed too outdated to count merit by ears and head, which is not convenient for hygiene, nor is it conducive to the formation of good combat habits for the troops.

After a large number of photos were taken by the Ministry of Rites, Zhu Fugui threw the body back to Seattle.

Since Mo Bai's armed parade, a large number of people in Seattle have fled.

The boys of the third regiment continued to carry forward the humanitarian spirit and helped these traveling people reduce some of the weight of the salute.

I believe that when they travel lightly, they will be able to escape from the mouths of brown bears and wolves faster and more easily when crossing beautiful landscapes such as Yellowstone Park and the Grand Canyon of the Colorado.

My Daming is really compassionate!

There are also many people in Seattle who stayed.

Among them is Charlie, who is also the undeserved Duke Charles I appointed by Ming Dynasty.

When he brought a group of people to clean up the corpses, Zhu Fugui was really worried about whether they would be infected with the plague.

After a great war, there will often be a major epidemic. This is something that must be guarded against. After all, the plague has no borders.

Unexpectedly, Charles I was more skilled than Zhu Fugui imagined.

It took less than one morning to burn all these corpses and throw them into the "common cemetery" in the back mountain.

There is a long history of this thing called "Hunde Gong".

This is the name of the famous calligrapher, the creator of the thin gold body, the person who has experienced many times in the present, the true ancestor of Kublai Khan and Nurhachi in the legend, the seeder that went deep into the enemy's rear, Mr. Zhao Ji Zhao.

In fact, it doesn't matter to Zhu Fugui who is the unvirtuous man, it doesn't matter whether it is Charles I or Richard I, as long as he can find any dog ​​to be the unvirtuous man.

This is just Zhu Fugui's attempt to build a buffer zone.

Because according to the most optimistic estimate, the population of Daming in the first half of this year will not exceed 10, and there is no plan to go east to Hangu.

There is really no need for such people to work hard in the vast, undeveloped inland areas.

Moreover, Minnesota, North and South Dakota, and Montana are the traditional spheres of influence of the Sioux.

Although the population of Su people is estimated to be less than 10, Da Ming has the ability to swallow them all in one fell swoop.

But Zhu Fugui is the emperor of China, and he doesn't really intend to be the emperor of the Yin people. He must control the proportion of the Yin people in the empire so that they can assimilate and absorb them without causing too much influence on the bloodline.

To be honest, this kind of nationalist concept of governing the country is definitely not as advanced as that of the Soviets.

However, whether it is the Soviet Union or the later American emperors, they have already demonstrated that a country without a main nation will not be able to maintain long-term stability, and the stability of a nation-state is naturally much higher than that of a pluralistic empire.

Once the dividends of the expansion period of the multiple empires end, it will be the beginning of civil strife.

In short, Zhu Fugui did not plan to follow the old path of the United States and the Soviet Union, but planned to learn from...

Well, it's another unlucky thing to learn from.

Zhu Fugui intends to learn from the Japanese, or in other words, learn from the Japanese to forcefully turn a country with at least three ethnic groups into a single-ethnic country.

What Ryukyu people, what Ainu people, do not exist.

All are Yamato people who speak Japanese, wear kimonos, and bow 120 degrees.

This is exactly what Zhu Fugui intended to do to the Yin people, and even to the naturalized Japanese themselves.

At present, within the Ming Dynasty, the Ministry of Rites has mobilized to quietly and systematically obliterate the culture of the Yin people and their language.

After Granny Maple and the older generation of Yin people were buried, the traditional culture of the Yin people should be something like Errenzhuan, which is no different from the Chinese.

As for those Japanese, of course it is even more so.

When Zhu Fugui returned to Fengdu from Deshengmen triumphantly with his army, Shimura Yuichi stood in the crowd, writing vigorously with his drawing board upright.

Although he doesn't have the outstanding talent of a samurai like Morishita-kun, Yuichi Shimura has found his own way.

That is painting.

This "Picture of Emperor Dewu Riding a Horse and Raising His Whip" combines many techniques of Chinese traditional painting, Japanese ukiyo-e, and Western painting, vividly rubbing the heroic and extraordinary side of the young emperor on the canvas.

As for why His Majesty Zhu Fugui obviously returned to the court on a tractor, but in his canvas, Zhu Fugui, who could not ride a horse at all, entered the city on a tall horse, and even made a painting similar to "Crossing the St. Bernard Pass in the Alps" The reason for the similar high-difficulty movements in the painting "Napoleon" is unknown.

In short, this realistic painting will meet readers through the "Daming Times", and the original version will be collected by the Royal Museum of Ming Dynasty as an important historical relic.

Not surprisingly, Shimura Yuichi will take this as a matter of course to become a first-class painter at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts affiliated to the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty.

However, there is one thing Shimura Yuichi has not mentioned to his friends, that is, under the inspiration of Long Live God, he has developed a new painting method with simple lines in addition to various traditional techniques.

Although this painting method is difficult to be elegant, it is not inferior to traditional painting in terms of expressiveness and appeal. It is a bit like a cartoon of a Westerner.

Shimura Yuichi plans to call this painting technique "Ming-style manga". As for the content of the painting, Shimura Yuichi already has some ideas.

When his friend Morishita returned to Daming, Yuichi wanted to ask him for advice on what he had learned on his voyage as a captain. He used this as a theme to write a volume of "One Piece".

At that time, when there is a finished product, it will be easy to play Da Tian Ting and listen to the long live jade sound.

……

Besides Shimura Yuichi, there is another person who is thinking about the return of the Ming Fleet, and that is Zhu Fugui Bengui.

At dinner time, Zhu Fugui sat at the dining table, his mind was full of big crabs and big lobsters.

"Old Li, where did the Ming Fleet go, shouldn't it be time to come back?" Zhu Fugui asked, knocking on the plate.

Chapter 162 The Outlaw Madman·Ito Hirobumi

"Long live, didn't you say that the fleet will go back and forth for at least a month? It's only been more than ten days, so I'm afraid it's just arrived in Fusang?"

Lao Li, wearing an apron, replied without turning his head.

He is seriously frying a piece of horse steak.

Horse meat is actually not unpalatable, otherwise, no matter in China, Europe, or North America, news of using horse meat as beef would not have been repeatedly reported.

But Lao Li firmly believed in the records of his family in "Compendium of Materia Medica": "Those who are poisoned by eating horse meat can be cured by drinking reed juice and eating almonds."

If Zhu Fugui hadn't moved out the old genius doctor of Xiongfeng Mountain as a guarantee, Lao Li would never have allowed horse meat into the palace.

Even so, he still carefully cooked the horse meat, carefully detoxifying it with onion, ginger, garlic, cooking wine, star anise, and millet pepper.

In this battle, more than 800 war horses were killed, and the two or three hundred horses injured had no therapeutic value.

Zhu Fugui was reluctant to waste it, so he could only take the lead in eating horse meat, trying to create a wave of horse meat consumption.

However, Zhu Fugui is actually more interested in seafood, but Daming has no ships to go to sea now, and the second ship Ding and Zhen have completely burped, corroded by seawater with a big hole, and can only be placed in the museum as exhibits.

……

Seattle is more than 9000 kilometers away from Shanghai, which sounds far away, but it is actually closer than Donald's last business trip to New York.

Before the opening of the Panama Canal, it had to go around more than 12000 kilometers from the west coast to the east coast.

Therefore, it only takes about 20 days to make a round trip between Seattle and Shanghai at the limit speed.

But traversing the Pacific is not as smooth as sailing along the contours of the North and South American continents.

So 30 days is a relatively safe time.

This time the Ming Fleet is going to sea for the first time, and it still needs to get through all the joints, contact Yazi, contact the medicine shop, cheat and bribe the Minister of Citigroup... There are so many things, so the total time-consuming may take more than a month.

The fact is just as Lao Li guessed, when Zhu Fugui was enjoying the juicy horse meat, the Ming Fleet, or the fleet of the "Citigroup Sani Moon Merchant Group" was mooring in Kagoshima Port.

Kagoshima is located at the southern tip of the Japanese archipelago, only more than 800 kilometers away from Shanghai Port. It has been an important trading port since ancient times and has been deeply influenced by the so-called "Lan Xue" by Westerners.

Kagoshima is the base camp of the Satsuma Domain, and the Satsuma Domain is also known as the Southwest Strong Domain just like the Changzhou Domain that bombarded the British, American, French, and Dutch merchant ships before.

In fact, in addition to the Shimonoseki War last year, the Satsuma Domain also broke out the Anglo-Samo War in August because the entourage of the father of the fan, Shimadzu Hisamitsu, killed the British Charles and Clark, and refused to pay compensation.

The scale of this war was smaller than that of the Shimonoseki War, and the Satsuma clan's will to fight was far inferior to the "one-track" Changzhou clan.

After being beaten up by the British, Satsuma Fan paid the compensation obediently, and never dared to mention the matter of barbarians again.

On the contrary, the Changzhou Fan was much more vigorous. In Zeng Guofan's words, it was repeated battles and repeated defeats.

They were beaten by the most vicious people, spoke the hardest words, and unswervingly demanded to fight the barbarians and go to war with the Westerners, and even did all kinds of sweet tricks for this.

In September last year, the Satsuma clan learned that the generals of the Changzhou clan planned to kidnap Emperor Xiaoming while he was on a tour, and force the emperor to order the princes.

Faced with such a crazy plan by the Changzhou Fan, the Satsuma Fan was discouraged, and immediately backstabbed the temporary allies who came together because of the barbarians.

The Satsuma clan, in conjunction with the Aizu clan and the emperor, pre-emptively lifted the military power of the generals of the Choshu clan in Kyoto, and expelled all the ministers who supported the barbarians.

When Daming's fleet arrived in Kagoshima, it was the time when the aftermath of the coup had not yet dissipated.

……

The night is getting darker, and there are not many insects singing in the fields in early spring.

Two short young men were drinking in an izakaya not far from the port.

They drink in small cups, eat bland vegetables, and their eyes are erratic.

"Mr. Inoue, I have already hidden the fish oil, pottery pots, etc. behind the warehouse at the pier. It is still the old formula."

"Ito, we are going to study in England next month. Is it too risky to do this now?"

boom!

The man named Ito smashed the wine glass on the table and said in a low voice:

"Mr. Inoue, the leader of the United States fabricated our country's credentials in the newspaper and put forward the 21 "Mi-Japanese Treaty" that is extremely humiliating. If such national hatred is not avenged, it will be Yamato man! Are you afraid?"

The man known as Inoue blushed, and hurriedly said: "Last year you, Hisaka, Takasugi and the others sneaked into the Shinagawa Gotenyama Eiyi Legation, sawed off the gate, and threw incendiary bombs. What a youthful demeanor, I wish I could go there , How could you shrink back today!"

"That's good, tonight we will burn this American merchant ship, and let the Westerners see the integrity of our Yamato man!"

After saying that, the young man named Hirobumi Ito drank the last sip of sake, got up and paid for the drink, put on a windbreaker with his friends, and hurried to the pier.

……

The two quietly drove the wooden boat and approached the Ming Fleet.

Of course, in their eyes, the star-spangled banner fluttering high is so glaring even in the dark night.

Ito Hirobumi inspected the incendiary bomb hidden in the voluminous robe, making final preparations for the later outlaw act.

Throughout last year, whether it was personally burning down the British embassy, ​​participating in the Xiaguan War, or the coup d'état launched by the Satsuma clan to expel the barbarians, scenes of the past played back in his mind.

Whether it is the emperor, the shogunate, or the Satsuma domain, they are all a bunch of servile soft bones.

Ito Hirobumi couldn't help but have such an idea in his heart.

But what Ito didn't know was that in history, when he came to study in the UK a month later and witnessed the powerful technological and military strength of the Westerners, his belief was finally ruthlessly crushed by reality.

Ito Hirobumi realized: "It is definitely not the best policy to fight against barbarians. Only by founding a country and learning from the West can we achieve a great cause of strengthening the country."

In the second Shimonoseki War in the future, Hirobumi Ito wrote a letter to urge the feudal lord Maori Jingqin not to "throw away the barbarians" and never to go to war with foreigners. Complete domestic unification.

However, Maori Jingkin, who was extremely hostile to foreigners, did not adopt Ito Hirobumi's suggestion, and eventually suffered a disastrous defeat in the war.

Only one year later, Takasugi Shinsaku and other lower-level samurai raised troops and won the vassal regime. As Takasugi's old friend Ito Hirobumi also advocated changing "rejecting barbarians" into "founding the country and making progress" and making friends with foreigners.

Now that Ito Hirobumi, who is only 23 years old, sees his future self, he will stab him to death, right?

Just like the beautiful boy who "lived up to the boy's head", in the end, Hirobumi Ito became the person he hated the most when he was young.

Of course, in the end history proved that Ito Hirobumi's choice was correct, at least for his generation.

……

"Ito-san, why is this ship made of iron?"

Inoue Kaoru's surprise interrupted Ito Hirobumi's thinking, and the latter also reached out and touched the hull of the "Jiading".

Ito Hirobumi also lost his composure: "Can steel float on the sea? If countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom send such gunboats to Japan, how should we resist?"

"How could such an iron ship burn down, Ito-san, let's go back quickly!" Inoue Kaoru said quickly.

"No, I don't believe it. I don't believe that the whole body of this ship is made of fine steel. It must be just a wooden hull with iron added! Yes, that's it!"

Ito Hirobumi felt that he had seen through the tricks of the Westerners. He took out a set of ropes from the bottom of the ship and threw them to the side of the "Jiading", "Mr. Inoue, come aboard with me. Let's burn this strange ship from the inside." !"

Chapter 163 What?Daming is alive?

The captain's office of the flagship "Fuqiang" of the Ming Dynasty Provisional Fleet.

For sea ships of this era, every inch of space is precious, and it is normal for several sailors to share a small cabin. Even the captain's office is only a small room about ten feet away.

At this time, several people crowded into this small room.
